HIs Heartbeat Caroline Peterka

What happens when your best friend grants your daughter's wish for her sixth birthday? Especially when the wish could send everything Cara Kruze has worked hard to hide into a tailspin. Cara Kruze has hidden her daughter, Nova, from people finding out she's the offspring of Axel Greyson. She took measurements to keep Nova out of the eyes of those who could cause them grief. Cara knows all about heartbreak and betrayal. She's had two people who she loved hurt her, and she's trying to protect her daughter. But her friend Cassidy does the most insane thing ever... She sends Axel a letter in hopes of bringing him back to Storm Lake. Cassidy doesn't know everything that happened between the two of them, and not what transpired. Or the fact Cara was in love with Axel's brother, Dax, and he left her too. Dax Greyson lives and breathes music. He left Storm Lake years ago, forming Crimson Sunset, and bringing them to the limelight. He never looked back. He didn't have to, because his brother, Axel, joined the band years later, and everything was going right. His mom was taken care of, living in the house of her dreams, and he was performing. But then his manager gets an email about a baby his brother fathered six years ago. A baby Axel didn't tell anyone about. Suddenly, life isn't about music anymore, and the guys go back to their home town to find out why Cara hid Axel's baby. The thing is, Axel was supposed to watch over Cara, my first love, not seduce her, and get her pregnant. Tension runs high between the brothers, secrets are revealed, and a love lost is rekindled. Once upon a time, Cara Kruze was his reason for living, she was his heartbeat, but he chose to leave her so she could spread her wings and fly. Can Dax find his heartbeat again? Will Cara look past her heartache, and find love again?
